Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 550 crazy myron

 Chapter 550 Crazy Myron

  549

 United States, San Francisco, Silicon Valley.

 Mickford Company.

 After several years of hard work, Mickford has regained the glory of the Hongguo Company at its peak.

 And under the leadership of Myron Keyes, we are constantly climbing towards higher peaks.

At this moment, Myron Case is wearing a dust-free suit and staring at the development work of new products in a dust-free laboratory.

 He had not slept for three days and nights.

 But he seems to have unlimited energy and has been tirelessly focusing on product development.

Being an employee under him is of course very uncomfortable. The boss has not left, and they are too embarrassed to leave. Moreover, the salary given by Myron Keyes is really too much, so they are too embarrassed to just choose to leave work.

 What is in front of everyone now is a mobile phone with a completely different shape from the past.

 This is the sixty-third product prototype.

 Sixty-two iterations have been carried out before this, and each time it was rigorously tested by Myron Keyes and then returned to redevelopment.

Myron Keyes is very striving for perfection and does not let go of any small flaws. It is almost like he has obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Even the internal structural layout of the mobile phone is very particular, and it must be laid out according to his requirements, because Myron Keyes said that this is the most reasonable design layout that he and other related designers have worked out after many years of research.

At the same time, he also proposed to design the mobile phone into an integrated one with a built-in battery, making it as simple and concise as possible, just like the portable music player device he sells now. Myron Keys wishes he could not remove a single button on this device. add.

 Of course that is definitely impossible.

 This is the ambitious work of Myron Keyes for many years.

 He had a premonition long ago that the future belonged to the mobile Internet.

  This is a very forward-looking vision, and it was the first thing that came to his mind when he personally entered the Internet.

 So it is his long-cherished wish to develop a mobile phone that can access the Internet.

 It’s just that sometimes things don’t go your way.

 Just when he was at the peak of his career at Hongguo Company, Youxing Electronic Entertainment appeared.

 They conquered the American market with an unstoppable and domineering attitude.

 originally, Myron Case had just successfully developed a compact portable device and was preparing to mass-produce it and put it on the market for testing to see how the market responded.

However, the sudden popularity of Youxing Electronic Entertainment caused differences among the company's shareholders.

 Many shareholders were caught off guard by the rise of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

 Then the bad news came one after another. The market share of many products of Hongguo Company was shrinking rapidly.

 The personal computer business was hampered by the emergence of home game consoles.

More people just want to play games, and the average price of electronic game consoles is only one or two hundred dollars, but a personal computer from Hongguo Company can easily cost thousands of dollars. In this comparison, everyone will subconsciously choose which one is more expensive. It's cheap and can make you happier.

 The rapid shrinkage of the product line made Hongguo Company quickly unable to make ends meet.

 Previously, Myron Case used a lot of money to invest in new product development.

 Now that we are halfway through product development, there are problems with the old product line, which is a bit of a headache.

So the shareholders began to panic, and they immediately asked Myron Keys to come up with a solution. What he insisted on was to use new music player products to open up new markets.

 But the shareholders think it is very risky.

　　I am obviously pretty good in the original market, but suddenly talking about opening up new markets in this somewhat dangerous situation is tantamount to gambling.

 After all, these people do not have prophetic eyes. It is impossible for them to know which products will be really popular in the future. They can only look at it from the perspective of the present.

 Looking at it now, Surui Electronics' Walkman equipment is very popular. If you develop a new similar product here, you may not even be recognized by your mother. It is better to hold on to the existing market.

 And when shareholders see how profitable video games are, they also want to invest some money into it.

Myron Keys argued hard and hoped to stick to his plan.

 Just as his company continues to expand, his right to speak has long been different from what it used to be.

 He was forced to defend the existing market and then develop a video game console.

 In the end, Myron Case failed to hold on to the existing market. This was considered by shareholders to be mismanagement, and he was then mercilessly dismissed from the company he founded.

This is really a humiliation. If it is an ordinary person, I am afraid that his will will be completely depressed.

 But Myron Keys is indeed not an ordinary person. He can quickly pick himself up and then start a new company from scratch. Moreover, this time he is more cautious and will maintain his absolute right to speak when accepting capital.

 Now, he has regained success, but the Hongguo company he once founded has completely died.

When Hongguo Company declared bankruptcy completely and no one took over, Myron Case felt very uncomfortable.

 It's like one's own child dying.

 But he had no choice. Even if he wanted to do something at that time, it was risky.

One careless move may put your current company in ruins again.

 So he could only watch in silence as the Hongguo Company died completely. Then at the last moment, he recruited the only remaining essence of the original Hongguo Company, which was the personal computer development team, into his new company, and then developed new products.

After so many years of keeping a low profile, he finally gained something, and his long-cherished wish finally came true.

 What was in front of him was the 63rd generation Internet mobile communication device, referred to as a mobile phone, or an Internet phone.

I heard that some companies like to call this product a smartphone, which is quite simple and straightforward and easy to understand.

 In short, this product is an attempt for him to show off his talents.

 And this time he was very confident of success.

 He picked up the 63rd generation mobile phone, pressed the button on the side, and the phone slowly lit up.

 There is a circular logo with a corner missing on the mobile phone, which represents a kind of incomplete beauty and represents the perfect form that one has always worked towards perfection but can never pursue.

 The phone entered the main interface. Each option was in a circle. Myron Keys raised his thumb and gently swiped the screen. The screen also quickly responded and followed his fingers to adjust the interface of the screen.

 The touch controls are perfect, the interface is perfect, everything is perfect.

It’s amazing. The touch technology is really easy to use. Youxing Electronic Entertainment is really forward-looking. They integrated touch into video games. This also inspired Myron Keys to think of Use touch to operate your phone.

 Speaking of which, I have to thank Yuxing Electronic Entertainment. Without Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, this product of mine would not exist.
